Not really a dream, but when I have trouble falling asleep I've found picturing myself riding a coaster lulls me to sleep. I know it's odd, but it works for me.

Wow. I will definitely be pledging $50 for this. It will be my first kick starter, what happens if they don't meet the goal? (I hope they do, but just curious)

I don't listen to any coaster related ones but I do consistently listen to: Wait Wait Don't tell me. This American Life The Instance. (World of Warcraft related)

SFNE seems to always have problems at the start of the season. I'm not sure if its lack of the student employees that are still in school or if its that they are still working out the kinks with new employees.

The structure for the catwalk looks a little iffy, but this is Mount Olympus.

Great pics as always Hanno! I love that you got Matt and I on his one ride on El Toro.

It seems odd that the LA times is writing about a new ride in Norway, but the article has the most information yet (that I've seen). Sounds like it could be a great ride.

The coast guard have suspended the search for the missing dock worker.

I love seeing amusement park stuff on the road, thanks for sharing.

It is sad that such a new coaster needs so much retracking.

That's great I had never heard of them doing that before!

I like your last reason. I just wish it had a bit more airtime.

It depends in the park. For something at six flags or cedarfair where their theming is mediocre at best a better ride is the way to go. But a park that does theming well like Disney, universal, or Europa, theming all the way. Would we all love Europa as much if their coasters weren't as awesomely themed?

Boulder dash! I love how most of the coaster is hidden from view and the trees really increase the sense if speed. It is by far my favorite layout of an out and back woodie.

^If they are indeed using that much if the existing slides infrastructure, the cost of adding a second slide would be way higher than just adding one.

Lol. Welcome. My other half barely tolerates them too.

So Ocean Park is building a waterpark? Does anyone know where t will be? I am guessing it will be off the main mountain.

Looks great. Thanks for sharing with us.

The knock off Chinese Alec's were pretty damn rough. Of course the fact that the restraints didn't white fit did not help.

I don't think they had done that in the past. It is the only park in the chain with the weather thing listed. It's definitely interesting.

It happened at Six Flags New England with their Batman in a box, donut just depends on how big of a power control freak the local government wants to be.

I'm willing to let them see if it helps. You never know it could be better.

Agreed. Very cool looking though not sure how practical it will be.

Frivolous lawsuit. Big f'ing deal. He was forced to listen to an annoying song for a while. He wasn't in danger, he wasn't harmed. I'm just glad he wasn't awarded more money than he was.

Sunday. When was the last time you had Chinese food?
